I have searched, but kinda need a more precise answer. What exactly will i need to get for the major service? Buying everything myself so need a full complete list. Thanks guys.

That should give you your information. Reference the 96k km schedual.

 

Ah perfect! Also just another question. Bit worried about the whole rotary thing, when it comes to tuning some of these things, would any servicing place be ok with it?

 

Depends on what kind of tuneing your talking about. If you need a "tune up," ie. fluids changed, filters that kind of stuff than yes any shop. Spark plugs can also be done by any shop assumeing they can get the part. But if you need anything done to the engine more complicated than changing the oil/filter or the spark plugs then you should find somewhere that has expirence with rotary's... which in many cases you'll find ISN'T the dealer!!!

Good luck

 

Is there some kind of workshop manual i can get online? The car is a 1990 Turbo(aus-delivered) I'm becoming an apprentice mechanic so it would be good experience. Plus the places charge way too much for my liking. $70 an hour when i bring all my own stuff and they say 2-3 hours. Just don't know how i would go with the splash guard.

 

I think there are links to one through the FAQ at the top of the forum.

 

Yeah i've seen those, they are more factory manuals. Which i already have the original of.

 

Check the archives here then. Probably one of the best reasources for step by step instructions for numerous things that may need work.
